Individual providers are responsible for the content in the leaflets they produce, and trusts have the freedom to decide what to include in their local leaflets.

Information on febrile seizures can be found on the NHS.UK website, which contains the nationally recommended guidance, at the following link:

All information provided to patients should be accurate and reflect the best possible advice, in line with guidance published by the Department, which is available at the following link:
